I Have To Teach My Insane Mom A Lesson

"Hey, I'm Alex from New York, and my mom and I have had quite the journey too. We weren't always as close as we are now. In fact, we used to have some epic battles just like Sasha and her mom. But before I continue, if you're enjoying this story, remember to hit that like button and subscribe.

My mom grew up in a small town near the countryside. She had this charming Southern accent and a knack for saying the quirkiest things. I remember her saying stuff like 'colder than a polar bear's toenails' and 'slower than molasses in January.' People loved her, though, because she came from a well-known family in the area.

She met my dad back in high school, and they fell in love. They eventually got married and had me. But when I turned eight, dad got a job offer in California, and he begged mom to move. So, we packed up our things and headed to the West Coast. That's when things started to get a little weird.

Late at night, I'd see mom pacing around the house, sneaking into the backyard, and even muttering to herself in the study. One night, I mustered the courage to ask her about it. She laughed it off and said it was just my imagination. Yeah, right, I thought.

Things took a turn when dad left us. He moved out, and mom and I were on our own. It was tough, and we had our fair share of arguments. I blamed her for everything, and she was just trying her best to hold everything together. Looking back, I can see that now.

In high school, things got even rockier. Mom inherited a significant amount of money, and suddenly, all sorts of people started showing up at our door, asking for handouts. She was too nice to say no, and I couldn't stand it. I took it upon myself to protect her, just like Sasha did for her mom.

But it wasn't easy. I was exhausted from trying to shield mom from these opportunists. And still, she refused to change her ways. It was during this time that I reconnected with my dad. He had his own struggles, and I was so angry with mom for keeping him away from me.

Slowly, though, I started to see that my mom's quirks and kindness were what made her special. It was also around this time that I met someone unexpected – my now best friend, Emily. She was a ray of sunshine, and she helped me see that it was okay to be different.

When Emily and I started hanging out, my mom wasn't too thrilled at first. But as she got to know Emily, she realized that I had found a true friend. Emily and I even worked together to organize a surprise birthday party for mom. It was a turning point for us. My mom and I started to rebuild our relationship, and I learned to appreciate her unique qualities.

So, to all of you out there who might be struggling with your parents or guardians, remember that sometimes it takes time to see their true worth. And if you've got a quirky mom like I do, embrace it – you never know how much you might learn and grow from her.
